In this fifth episode from Fieldfisher's Data & Privacy Matters podcast, Nuria Pastor  and Sophia Steiger  round up the key data and privacy news that has caught their attention throughout May 2024.

They take us through the latest updates on AI from the EU, UK and USA as legislation evolves and the EU AI Act is approved. This episode explores updates from regulators, from the EDPB's opinion on facial recognition technology to streamline airport passengers' flow to the ICO's strategic approach to regulating AI and the Dutch DPA's guidance on data scraping. And if that is not enough, the episode touches on developments in UK public sector breaches as well as sentencing for the historic Vastaamo hacking case in Finland.
